updated clickable cockpits for Su-25 , Su-25T

[Tekeshi]

will ED add the existing Su-25 an Su-25T cockpits?

[GGTharos]

Currently there are no officialy announced plans for such a thing, I would imagine they at least have Su-25A on their mind ...

[RedTiger]

If ED does an Su-25, I would think its assured to have a clickable cockpit. If you mean for LOMAC, then no, I don't even think its possible.

[ThunderChief]

Not much to click anyway unless also the systems would be modeled in detail.

[GGTharos]

I guess using that logic you might say there's 'not much to click' in the Ka-50 ;)

Yeah exactly! :D

 

I mean the current model of the Su-25 and Su-25T can be very well controlled via keyboard / HOTAS. Only the much more detailed model of the Ka-50 will force you to use the clickable cockpit.

 

So as long as the Su-25 model stays the same I think it is rather an advantage than a disadvantage if you don't have to click any buttons in a combat sim.

[nemises]

^^ disagreed :)

 

Fully clickable, or not at all is my new motto ;)

[GGTharos]

I think you missed the premise behind flyable aircraft in DCS ;)

This is one of the stated goals of the DCS series--"systems modeled in detail"

 

Not much to click anyway unless also the systems would be modeled in detail.

[Yellonet]

Uhmmm... I'm thinking that Thunderchief is saying that there's no point in making clickable cockpit for these aircraft because they're not on the same level as the Ka-50, not that more details are bad or that we'll see new flyables at lower realism. Just that unless the systems in the flyables are up to the same standards as for the Ka-50, clickable pit is not needed.

[ThunderChief]

Sorry I misunderstood the original question then! I thought the existing Su-25 should get a clickable cockpit (like upgrading LO:FC).

If the Su-25 would be modelled as a DCS aircraft there has to be a clickable cockpit :thumbup:

[Crow_Bar]

Its absolutely fantastic to think in time there may be a 25 running in BS( a fully clickable model at that).:)

[GGTharos]

Not in BS. Maybe at some point in DCS.

[Crow_Bar]

Not in BS. Maybe at some point in DCS.

Ah Ok, :( but still nice to know the 25 may not be totaly gone.:)

[Boberro]

What for clickable cocpit with avionics which are limited to few keys in LO:huh: ;]

[stealthtemplates]

Wont be for at least a few years,

DCS is currently working on the A-10 as the next aircraft

[Rhino4]

Neg: It's the apache and THEN the hog I thought?

[GGTharos]

I'm fairly certain that the A-10 will be next in line.

[VMFA117_Poko]

I'm fairly certain that the A-10 will be next in line.

Already can't wait. Good news (old news actually) for aircraft guys but a bit worse for multiplayer. Pretty obvious decision since ED built A-10 sim already for USAF. Question: will A-10 module come with A-10A and A-10C in one package or is it going to be released separately?

Aye - Myself, Cannot wait :)

 

One would sincerely hope that the Modules - A10 for one but equally applying to all insofar as it is relevant - will be structured as such as to allow the Flyable to be selected on two opposing coalitions.

 

I'd happily suspend belief in order to get the choice as above. Would certainly solve a lot of Multiplayer issues........if only to curtail Mass Fratricide in 30mm Duelling through the streets of Krasnodar :D

 

Any clarity from those in the know to the above supposition?

[Canada]

I'm fairly certain that the A-10 will be next in line.

 

But since the main components of the DCS engine are already pretty much finished (I presume ?), is it safe to say that the Apache module will be released within a shorter period of time than the A-10 ?

[GGTharos]

I think the A-10 is much more 'done' than the Apache, and so it will be next.

[Wags]

I think the A-10 is much more 'done' than the Apache, and so it will be next.

 

Correct

[stealthtemplates]

I wonder how much faster the A-10 release will be since DCS have got the engine finished, hopefully its not something we need to wait 3 more years for ;)
